Host City
Avon is a city of culture and, indeed, was the first Elejamian City of Culture back in 2013. The Goldenderry district in the heart of downtown is unofficially referred to as the “Museum District" and for a good reason, as it’s home to the National Museum of Art, the Avon Museum of Modern Art (or AMMA for short) that’s just a stone’s throw away and the National Transport Museum. There’s also the Avon Botanical Gardens located on the outskirts of the city should downtown not satisfy your cravings. For a show, there’s the Bristol district which hosts a number of performing arts centres such as the Broadenchurch Theatre, the Bristolian Centre and the Cochrane; there’s the Avon Operahaus which not only is one of two main opera houses in the Aventry area but is also home to the Avon Philharmonia; and there’s the StarLand Cinema, which is the largest cinema in the nation and nestled snugly on the edge of the Avon CBD. And, for those who wish to take part in any religious services during their stay, there are a number of churches, mosques, the odd synagogue and other religious buildings dotted round the city, as well as the Avon Cathedral which also functions as a museum when services aren’t in session.
Avon is also pretty well known for its sports capabilities, being the host of the Avon Stars in the ENIHL, as well as its female counterpart in the Avon Thunder of the ENWIHL. There’s the Avon Saints of the EPBL. There’s the Avon Knights in the ERC, the University of Avon Cats in the University League, the Avon Warriors in the HBRL (soon to be renamed EERL) and the Avon Sphinx in the EWRC. There are a handful of bowls venues dotted around the entire Aventry metro area, including on the Pembroke Golf Course just on the edge of Avon which has weekly competitions open to anyone. There’s a myriad of soccer teams, with Avon FC being the main team but smaller sides such as Avon Egremont FC, Avon LFC and Efontari Iyilim FT calling the city home. And, of course, there’s the Battle of the Bridge, a series of rivalries between sports teams from Avon and sports teams from their cross-river rivals Coventry, all of which tend to sell out very quickly and get good ratings, so expect a tense but ultimately thrilling atmosphere should anyone catch a game between the Stars and the Puffins, the Knights and the Wyverns, the Warriors and the Saviours, the Saints and the Nets and many more.
The contest will be hosted in the Riverside Arena, located on the banks of the Garpu River. Originally planned to be completed in time for the new Millennium, construction was finally finished in March 2000 due to a myriad of problems that saw construction get delayed. The arena is home to a number of sports teams such as the Avon Stars ice hockey team, Avon Saints basketball team and the national basketball team, among other teams. It also hosted the second edition of the rebooted ElejamieVision, which determined who would represent the nation at the 86th and 87th WorldVision Song Contests. Normally it has a capacity of 16,250 people with a potential to expand it to 17,000, although due to parts being tarped off and social distancing measures being enforced the number’s expected to be much lower. Fortunately, there’ll be a number of suites for those who are willing to dish out extra for them, a number of commentary booths for each broadcaster with all the necessary extras and a green room that not only conforms to social distancing measures but also has a free bar
